We divide 659843 by 38
We want to divide 659843 by 38.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 38, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 65 / 38

Going ahead to step 2:
65 divided by 38 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 38 from 65, we get 27.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 279 / 38

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 279 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 266 from 279 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 138 / 38

On to step 4:
The number 38 fits into 138 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 173.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 114 from 138.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 244 / 38

On to step 5:
When dividing 244 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1736.0
If we take 228 away from 244, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 163 / 38

Step 6:
38 can be fit into 163 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17364.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 152 from 163.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 38 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17364.2
If we take 76 away from 110, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 38 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17364.28
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 304 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
38 can be fit into 360 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17364.289
Subtracting 342 from 360 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 38 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17364.2894
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 38 fits into 280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17364.28947
If we subtract 266 from 280, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 38 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17364.289473
Subtracting 114 from 140 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
38 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17364.2894736
Subtract 228 from 260 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
38 can be fit into 320 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17364.28947368
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 304 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17364.28947368 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
